Pacific ring of fire ... What's going ??!

Been monitoring this activity for the past 7 days. And it has increased in active areas that include the new madrid fault. It might not be known commonly but the new Madrid fault is the least active fault line. Also notice the increased severity of the quakes through the west coast of south America . Even Africa up through Europe it has a seeming pattern. Now the strange part look dead center of the pacific ... That has been going off all week varying degrees.

The Ring of Fire is called that for a reason. I wouldn't worry to much about that.

What's been going on with the New Madrid? All I've been seeing is minor earthquakes, unless I'm looking in the wrong area.

Of course , but the severity and increased frequency with that odd shock dead center ... The the us mid west (new Madrid fault) has Been jumping in varying levels of severity, plus a minor quake moments ago in new jersey. The research indicates that there is a potential continental shift to take place around this time. How accurate have the forecasters been thus far and exactly what could that potentially mean

Don't forget everything they've been hiding. But still. I'm not too worried about it. Ring of Fire has a nasty rep. but I think anything will come of that. The New Madrid is more worrisome but only because of the sink hole. Unless we see them suddenly jumping to over 2's (which is what I've been seeing), I wouldn't worry about it too much. Eq's are the plates way if releasing stress. I would rather have all of these then one big eq.

And it's ironic too'Cause what we tend to doIs act on what they sayAnd then it is that way~Jem.

The quakes on the east coast are caused by pressure from the Atlantic Ridge or the New Madrid, possibly both. I know the AR is rift, although it may be called something else. With the AR the plates are moving apart. so as they move so to must the crust. I don't know if the NM is divergent or a rift. Current plate tetonic maps do not shw the the North American Craton and I don't know why.

Exactly true of the new Madrid and in the past week they have been up to four or better .Pending in site usage varies what is displayed [link to earthquake.usgs.gov] Compared to

That's what arises suspicions. When the information provided to the public fir their safety is altered .. How would we know if we were in danger if we aren't aware. Mind you I've seen a work up of what would theoretically occur land mass wise if the continents shift ... The possibility for survival is highly likely but not for everyone. What are your views?Are they disabling our resources to ween the population ?Or us this the projected activity for this year?

Then you've also noticed the descrepency .... And and are aware if the dangers of the new Madrid fault activity ... And the fact that there is activity is bad ... Considering the last one that hit that region devasted it....Check the links and state your sources to compare notes

Going all back to the 16th of November, the highest has only been 3.6. But that's on a person can feel. For the past 30 days I'm counting 13 eqs, with the highest being a 4.3 on the 10th. That one is worrisome. When they start getting closer to Louisiana is when I'm going to panic.

Eq's can be man made but we would know but it requires something like a nuclear explosion, if I remember right, to make one happen. So I don't think these are caused by us for population control. I'm more concerned about the Sandy victims- you can guarantee people are dying in those camps.

I think the Ring of Fire activity is normal for the Ring of Fire- it earned that name. The NM activity is a bit worrisome but still not focusing too much on that but I will be watching it more often now that I saw that 4.3

And it's ironic too'Cause what we tend to doIs act on what they sayAnd then it is that way~Jem.

Of course that why the media black out ... And mind you this not to be offensive just accurate... The displaced people are of the inner city low income areas ... That tend to be ridden with crime death and poverty. Also a known fact is that many inner city residents or the displaced have a prison record. They have a media black out in effect over a area that has the potential for lawlessness and chaos . The fact is as the temperatures drop and worsen conditions the hostilities will rise and that leaves the inevitable occurring .

As for the quakes there's still that one dead center of the pacific that recently apeared. And you would be correct to day a nuclear explosion could simulate the effects of a quake varing payloads to seismic signature.Which could bring the topic of discussion ... Is there a nuclear war on going on a world wide scale and we the people are being kept in the dark because the public awareness of this would cause chaos and pandaonium in the streets?

People forget about children in those bad areas. Babies are born there too

If there was a nuclear war going on I think we would know. Radiation poisoning is pretty obvious and the effects that it would have on the earth would be obvious. So no hidden nuke war since that's impossible to cover up. Could volcanic activity. Earth being earth. Hell. maybe they are engineered and the public doesn't know about that technology. Who knows, but I think it's just the earth being the earth and releasing stress. However, stress in the NM area is not a good sign. At least it's releasing though. I think the last quake there was a 8 something...

The one out in the Pacific could a be volcano. Maybe we're getting a new island?

that is a plausible theory , and along those theoretical lines a land formation or volcano in the center of the pacific plate could cause the plate to shatter ... This would coincide with the current theory's in place regarding the continental or tectonic shift. Theoretically if the pacific plate does shatter into smaller plates loosely fit together it would cause the tectonic plates to shift south and east according to the physics and dynamics .... My point is the constant activity over a prolonged period of time would cause extensive damage to the point of breaking. With the current activity at it's center point, the outcome isn't good . Considering the variables and the constants as what they are and the scientific proof for what it is the logical outcome is what has been established in scientific theory the unknown is the day and time.

The Ring of Fire is called that for a reason. I wouldn't worry to much about that.

What's been going on with the New Madrid? All I've been seeing is minor earthquakes, unless I'm looking in the wrong area.

Usdate-----

A total of six quakes above 5 have hit the western edge of the pacific ring including the eastern shores of japan. Increased activity persists throughout the states and europe as well as portions of Africa and mid east. The frequency is not necessarily the problem as quakes occur daily, the concern lies in the increased magnitude of each of the quakes and the lack of coverage of any of the quakes.If ya know something is going on .... Fine now if yakno what has been on going has drastically increased it's intensity .... Think about it.... If you know something has been going on and it's increased severely in the past day as it has , and there I'd no public report on it .... Head for the hills something big , really big might be on the verge of happening and of course it's something that can't be discussed publiclly due to the potential chaos and mayhem that may occur as a result of it. Do your research and decide for your self what's best for you and yours

Quakes with magnitude in the range 5.0 to 5.9 ALWAYS happened EVERY FUCKING DAY in the "ring of fire".

A quake in that range is like a FART to the ring of fire.

Means NOTHING.

As nonchalant as you put it .... Not really . Yes there is a constant source of activity in the region thus the name. The fact is the average quake in that region is between 2-4 ... The increased magnitude is worthy of notice considering the anticipation of a quake in the 6s ... The danger isn't a land quake but a deep sea quake. The results of a deep sea quake with a magnitude of 5.5+ or even less if in a multiple sequence would have tsunami size waves crashing on the shores of japan and the western us ... That's why there is an alert . Your preparedness and foreknowledge is what couldean the difference between ... You kno the rest so asses and adapt

It seems I was correct at about five or six this morning there was a 4.6 quake in the hawian islands . Meaning the depth of the quakes in Fiji took approximately 12 hour to hit the island of hawaii .The activity in Hawaii differ from other areas and regions due to the fact that it in fact is a chain of volcanoes and any seismic activity is volcanic activity. Knowing this the activity was considerably elevated in comparison to the recent constant activity. More recently is within the pas several hour the western coast of south America has started to rumble in quakes reaching magnitudes of elevated natures.. Reason for concern? What do you think? FYI an eruption of volcanic debris resulting from a sizable quake would send a cloud of volcanic ash that could encompass the south pacific and alter the weather patterns drasticLly. And the flow of petro rom the south American continent is in jeopardy of severe interruption .

Been monitoring this activity for the past 7 days. And it has increased in active areas that include the new madrid fault. It might not be known commonly but the new Madrid fault is the least active fault line. Also notice the increased severity of the quakes through the west coast of south America . Even Africa up through Europe it has a seeming pattern. Now the strange part look dead center of the pacific ... That has been going off all week varying degrees.

I would have to agree with OP. If you look at the USGS map, it's obvious something is going on all along the Pacific Rim plate (I'm not so up on this stuff w/eq's, so I don't know its "technical" term). But there are a whole lot of eq's all going on simultaneously all along that fault....way more than I ever remember all within seconds of each other.
